Woody is sticker'd and insured. W00T!

Now need to fix that damn AC compressor bearing.. and about 50 other things..

Woody on its first taco run. This one's for @Spike Strip, Woodman Ave and Woodman Pl near the Copart. Pollo looks legit. Picking up some jute under padding from Vic's.

 

[Spike Strip]

Pollos Al Carbon ! Sketchy, but I've been there!

I bought a 1st Gen Isuzu Trooper from that Copart, many years ago -- They burned me with a bad head-gasket!

Truck looks great. I see an H55 in your future!

What's Vic's ?

 

[majdomo]

Vic's Auto Upholstery. Great spot to get raw materials for interiors. Been a minute since I've been over here, last time was for the BMW project.

The H55 has crossed my mind more than a few times... need to shake this down a bit more and think on which one to keep, the 60 or 62.

You HAVE to wheel the 60 with the H42 before you seriously consider a 5 speed. Anything less and you’re just part of the hive mentality.

Btw, I’ve got a pair of Pioneer 6x9s for you in the driveway.

^ True

@MANUCHAO was gracious enough to donate a pair of FJ60 seats that I need to get reupholstered - Any places in the Valley to recommend ?

Not really unfortunately. I had the BMW seats done by a guy who specializes in them down in SD. I'm probably taking the 60 down to these guys for the headliner, they are primarily an upholstery shop though. Literally around the corner from the LKQ in Sun Valley - Elite Custom

Love it and thank you!! They are going to a good home. Yeah - the H55 has to be down the list because it's just $$$ as all get out and I need to pace myself. Plus I don't really mind the slow yet, I do mind the no AC in 95* valley heat (shopping for R12 lol) and what sounds like an exhaust leak, but I can't quite tell if it's that or just noisy. And the engine mounts. And the smell. And....

 

[65swb45]

Well, I can’t help you with the R12, but for your headliner project I could donate some…

R13

 

[Spike Strip]

Sorry, I gave the last of my R12 to a guy at work with an old Camry

 

[majdomo]

I am sitting in the rig waiting for my son to come out from band camp, with dirt and turds falling out of the headliner behind the sun visor...

Looking really good Mark! R13 would be nice, maybe a little toasty!

I've got like half a can of R12 still hooked up to a gauge. If you're interested PM me, happy to sell ya the whole setup cheap.
